A Horse of Another Color.

Under this caption Bro. Jastremski,
of the Baton Rouge capitolian, drives
at Bro. Puckette, of the Shreveport
Times, in this. wise:
Our esteemed confrere of the Shreve-
port Times is stretching his ingenuity
to the utmost in endeavoring to make
the Boatner campaign an offset to the
liant movement. After acknowledge
ing the support given by Gen. Mich
oils to Mr.. Hunts candidacy, he then
makes the reckless statement that
Gov. McEnery supported Mr.. Boatner.
Unfortunately for our contemporary,
the beautiful fabric he has woven is
not Of silk. The threads are of spider
webs and won't wash. In the first
place, the Hunt movement was organ
lied by a self-constitntcd committee
who made out list of citizens whom
they called in conclave. Attheir con-
clave, these citizens nominated Mr..
Hunt as the, candidate of the "Reform
Democracy" All this they did with
out shadow of authority from the
Democratic organization. That was
the movement for which Gen. Nichols
took the stump. The circumstances
were altogether different in the Boat
ner- King contest. In that case con-
vention was assembled composed of
delegates elected under the call of the
Democratic Congressional Committee.
At the organization of that Democratic
Convention, dispute arose which re-
suited in split. Each of the con
tending wings of this convention nom
mated, the one, Mr.. King, and the
other, MIR. Boatner. 1t was an unfor-
tunate dispute that Gov. McEnery and
all other good Democrats regretted,
md it is historical 1act that he neither
took the stamp nor coted for either of
the fival candidates.

The Avoyelles Outrage.
The promptness with which the Avo

The promptness with which the Avo-
yelles outrage has been met by the
Governor, the public opinion of the
State, and by the good people of Avo-
velles, shows very conelnsively that
such acts of violence as these cannot
90 undenounced and unpnnished in
Louisiana. No State in the Union en-
Joys greater peace, qniet and order
than Louisiana does to-day and has for
months past. There have been no
strikes, no cless ill-feeling or jealousy,
no disturbance of any kind, but good
will and fraternal feeling throughout
the State.
No boistcrous, rowdy element will
be permitted to disturb the good will
and order; no Jealous person to warn
away any one pursuing a legal and
honest business. Louisiana throws it.
self open to the whole world and in.
vites here people from every portion Of
the Union or of Europe. 1t makes no
distinction of race, religion or politics,
and it will permit no one to arouse re
ligions or political prejudices or jeal-
ousies. Immigration is pouring in and
capital coming in abundance, and these
are bringing prosperity with them
Not on this account alone, bnt from
innate justice and honesty, the State
of Louisiana stands ready to protect
every person, stranger or foreigner,
who makes his home here, in all his
rights and privileges. 1t has given its
word for this, and it will keep it,
The moment the outrage was called to
his attention Gov. McEnery took ac-
ton. As the guilty ones were without
sympathy in the Parish it was only ne
cessary to offer a suitable reward for
their capture. The people of Avo-
'yelles, We are glad to see, at once took
up the matter themselves and held a
mass meeting, at which suitable rcso-
lntions were cdopted, denouncing those
who were engaged in the affair. 1t is
gratifying to note their promptness in
the matter, their unani.nity, and their
Intention to punish the offenders. 1t
remains now to capture the men who
fired into the stores and sent threaten
ing letters to the two Jewish mer-
chants at Cottonport and Evergreen.
They evidently thought that public
opinion would approve, or at least
overlook, their violence. Let them
learn, to the contrary, that Louisiana
not only repudiates what they did, but
Furnishes them for it. This done, there
will never be need for another mass
meeting or reward offered by the
Governor in similar case Times

costumes may be all very well for the bal
